Understanding that it takes hard work to be successful, Dwayne Johnson does not shy away from a little sweat. Starting his career as a professional wrestler known by his ring name of The Rock, Johnson now spends most of his time as an actor, producer, and singer. Here is a look at some of the most recognizable Dwayne Johnson quotes.
“All successes begin with Self-Discipline. It starts with you.”
“Being a true bad ass has no weight or gender requirement – just 100% commitment to greatness.”
“BLOOD, SWEAT & RESPECT. First two you GIVE. Last one you EARN.”
“Change doesn’t begin when we get knocked on our ass. It begins the moment we decide to get back up on our own feet.”
“Don’t be afraid to be ambitious about your goals. Hard work never stops. Neither should your dreams.”
“Grind Hard, Shine Hard.”
“I know how important it is to have people who believe in you even when you don’t believe in yourself.”
“I like to use the hard times of the past to motivate me today.”

“If something stands between you and your success – move it. Never be denied.”

“If you’ve ever been hungry, you can never be full.”
“I’m very low-key. I don’t really blend in, so it’s difficult to go out in public. I like to do things that are kind of quiet, whether it’s a dinner at my house or a restaurant, or a movie night at home.”
“It doesn’t matter what your name is!”
“I’ve learned over the years that when it comes to success, consistency is key. Consistent hard work that we may not like doing today, but for a payoff we’ll love tomorrow. Earn it. Enjoy it.”
“Not only do I think being nice and kind is easy but being kind, in my opinion, is important.”
“Once you believe in who you are and who you were born to be, it can be very powerful.”
“One hard day of work proves you have heart. But day after day is what proves you have maturity and commitment.”
“One of the most important things you can accomplish is just being yourself.”
“Success at anything will always come down to this: focus & effort. And we control both.”
“Success isn’t always about ‘greatness’. It’s about consistency. Consistent hard work gains success. Greatness will come.”
“Success isn’t overnight. It’s when everyday you get a little better than the day before. It all adds up.”
“The fact of the matter is this: Austin can take his ball, and go home. But as far as The Rock is concerned, as far as I’m concerned, this is home.”
“The first step to achieving your goal, is to take a moment to respect your goal. Know what it means to you to achieve it.”

“What matters is performances, regardless of what the name is, whether it’s The Rock – which is my nickname and people call me that all the time – it’s no big deal.”
“When I train, I’m peeled away. I’m at my rawest state. Generally there’s spit coming out my mouth, sweat pouring out my body and every once in awhile I may have just finished throwing up.”

“With drive and a bit of talent, you can move mountains.”
